Quite alot. A number of magazines here in Sweden wrote about it, it was alot of shows to commemorate the 20th birthday.

AmiWest and AmiGBG in Sweden and FyAnica in Hungary, just to mention a few.

Check out the "history" section of AmiGBG and you'll find links to reports and photos there. There was fireworks and a cake in the shape of the A1000 keyboard and alot of new software was shown.

These are interesting times we live in. New machines in progress, new AmigaOS in progress.. userbase slowly, slowly growing..  which is a success in itself.

Would have been cool to have the final release of OS 4 released on the Amiga's 20th birthday. :)

Oh well...
